Summary: OK
Review: The book was larger than I expected, but much of this is superfluous details of medical but not necessarily martial significance. Looks like he combined a range of pressure points with a medical encyclopidia. He details striking area, angle of attack and force (hard/soft) required. Unfortunately he ommitted some of my favourite pressure points. Also, the pressure points are explained from a western rather than chinese medical viewpoint (which is maybe not too bad unless you are interested in the chi channels).It is a reasonable reference book, but would have been better if made more concise. Also, it is no way comprehensive. Having done aikido I had some issues with his moral approach to combat i.e. if someone attacks you you are justified in using lethal force to protect yourself and family. In addition to his details on the pressure points there are photos of him doing examples of techniques which use these pressure points. Him and another bloke are dressed in power-ranger suits doing very poorly executed techniques (poor posture, non-fluid movement, poor use of body). This made me doubt his abilities. Get this if you want to learn a selection of pressure points but do not believe that they will necessarily be as effective as suggested, or that this is in any way comprehensive. Also, remember that killing someone isn't the only way to prevent an attack, and is usually the least desirable (especially if you get arrested).

Summary: Couldn't have been better!
Review: This book by Master Hei Long was very informative. It is easy to understand and follow (most of the time) and has many many pictures and writing guiding you through each step. I am 13 years of age and gained a lot of knowledge from this book. I encourage you to not only read this book but study it for best resutls. i recomend this book to people of all ages.

Summary: Who is this guy anyway?
Review: This book is really a waste of time and money. I
thought that it would provide insights into the weak spots of
the body, eg why certain parts are weak, the best way to hit etc.
To a certain extent it does this, but its so weak on details and explanation that its not worth the time. THe pics are in blackj and white and the guys look like they're wearing nuclear fall out suits. THe attacks are based more on a kung fu system, so if someone attacks you in a certain way then this is how to reverse it and hit a pressure point.It doesnt show you any practical self defense.

Summary: Perfect, very informative book
Review: This book is super informative integral info about vulnerable points of human body. I read many books about pressure points, but this Hei Long handbook is far best.

Summary: Where do I start?
Review: Well, for starters, the information in this book is very low-level. Most of the old Bruce Tegner books will give you as much info on pressure points as will this one. For better descriptions of the points and their use in self-defense, check out the books by George Dillman, Erle Montaigue, and Rick Clark. The techniques used to show applications in this book appear to be quite stiff. I guess it's hard to be well-balanced and fluid when you are wearing a gold ( or is it silver?) ninja outfit. Actually, the ninja suits are not a bad idea. This way, the author and his helpers can walk down the street without people pointing and laughing. Hei Long (proud son of Mr. and Mrs. Long, or Mr. and Mrs. Hei?) has written other books, but this is the only one I can review. It's so bad, I have no desire to purchase another.
